Results. Pain Relief. That is what our Groton
back pain and neck pain patients desire from our
Groton chiropractic care. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office realizes
this and provides this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients desire. Relief
is possible. We’ll talk about how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office always puts our back pain and
neck pain patients at the center of care. We pay attention
to what our Groton chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot
do now. It makes sense to put such
a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding
the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain reports
that patient-led goal setting is important in and of
itself as part of the treatment plan in getting
desired back pain relief. (1) This is welcome news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can help in their own relief! That is why we question
our Groton back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do
that they miss doing now. The one thing - or many
things – our patients want to do motivate all of us1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office purposely wants to establish
realistic expectations that motivate all of us. Many Groton
back pain sufferers question if surgery is
better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article offers a few ideas
on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery possibilities:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in
spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) documented
long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant
failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) unclear
parameters as to when and for what issues spinal implant
removal may be warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal
stiffness. (2) With these ideas in mind, let’s look
at another report that focuses on the immediate beneficial
effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: reduced
muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. Admittedly,
baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may have something
to do with the outcomes. (3) At Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office, our Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management is shown beneficial for
a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Groton chiropractic care of back and neck pain addresses a multitude of spinal conditions in patients
of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic have shown
how spinal stiffness may impact positive outcomes. Spinal
manipulation via Cox® Technic may be delivered in the gentlest manner
in a variety of doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable
for the patient. Exercise and nutrition complement the
treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research reported on
the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in reducing
the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell
level by eliminating reactive oxygen species! (4)) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office
has a way to help our patients get what they want:
results.
